He has some big shoes to fill…
Vetements designer Demma Gvasalia has officially been named new artistic director of Balenciaga!
The news comes just days after Alexander Wang announced his departure from Balenciaga.
However, this isn’t the end for Vetements. Demna Gvasalia will continue to lead the design collective at Vetements while taking on his new role at Balenciaga. In the past, Gvasalia has worked at Margiela and Louis Vuitton before starting his own line.
Alexander Wang’s final show for Balenciaga took place last Friday. Gvasalia is expected to stage his first show for the brand in March 2016 during Paris Fashion Week. We’re all very excited to see what he does with this amazing brand!
